This post could rightly go in US,World or Ancient so I figured I would post it here. CT authorities feel free to move it if necessary Below are a few of my newest additions that I got as presents this holiday season. My apologies on the photo quality as I decided not to take some of them out of their holders till I get home from the holidays. Valentinian I AE3 (364-375) Obv.: D N VALENTINIANVS P F AVG - Diademed, draped bust right Rev.: GLORIA ROMANORVM - Valentinian, holding labarum, advancing right dragging captive by the hair Special thanks to the CT brain trust for helping me ID this worn bronze beauty! 1916 Great Britain 3 Pence Obv.: George V head left Rev.: Crowned denomination divides date within oak wreath 1846 Braided Hair Large Cent Obv.: Head left, braided hair, within circle of stars, date below Rev.: Denomination within wreath So what do you guys think? Feel free to post photos of your own eclectic Christmas haul.
PS- The Valentinian looks almost like one of those little "pocket screwdriver" tools you can put on a keychain. Very inventive, those Romans. Centuries ahead of the Swiss Army, they were!
PPS- you did exactly what I did. Since I collect Ancient, World, and US, any of my posts that span all three categories go right here, in the Coin Chat forum. It works.
